I am a regular contributor to Gay Community News, that national newspaper of
Irish lesbians and gays.

Present work:
1. Member of the research team on the first national study of lesbians and
gays, funded by a statutory body, and administered via the Gay and Lesbian
Equality Network.  (Report due to be launched by Minister of State, Joan
Burton in June 1994).
2. Memeber of the research team on a national study of Travellers' needs for
the Deparment of Equality and Law Reform.
3. Following on the GLEN lesbian and gay study I will co-edit a book with
my colleague Eoin Collins on "Lesbian and Gay Visions of Ireland."


Louie, that's about as much as I can think of right now.  Perhaps I should
mention that my graduate work was done in the USA, first at the Irish Studies
Program at Northeastern, and later at Harvard.

Hope this gets to you safe and sound.

Beir bua/Go well.
